• Serve as the first point of contact for all colleagues, guests, and clients, delivering an exceptional welcome and a consistently high standard of service.
• Handle office operations-related enquiries from staff and visitors, always ensuring efficient and helpful responses.
• Responsibility for a smooth running and presentation of the office environment, liaising with cleaning services, facilities, and engineering teams, recommending and executing on improvements when approved.
• Assist with the organization and administration of company events, including internal meetings, conferences, business travel, and social functions.
• Act as a liaison for global procurement team in managing local procurement activities, including shipping, receiving and invoicing at the R&D Center.
• Manage incoming and outgoing post and deliveries, coordinating with internal teams and building security.
• Maintain stock of office supplies including stationery, food, and beverages, ensuring availability for both staff and guests.
• Partner with Physical security and landlord to administer access card processes for new joiners, leavers and visitors, including the issuance of replacements as needed.
• Support colleagues with travel management arrangements and expense management processes.
• Act as on-site HSE representative (training provided), ensuring appropriate health & safety provisions are in place and are being followed. Support accident and incident reporting processes in accordance with company procedures.
• Undertake any additional duties required to support colleagues, clients, and the wider business as necessary.
• Coordinate required training for staff supporting first aid and fire warden roles.

Key Requirements

• Willingness to be working from the office 5 days per week (Monday to Friday).
• A willingness and can-do attitude to getting things done, no job is too small or too much trouble for.
